Cannot get to Acrobat X Pro after Installing

I installed Acrobat X Pro on a server. Icon is white and says Acrobat X Pro but when I open it it is only reader. I do not have Reader installed on the server. I also have already gone to edit:preferences:general and chose the default to Acrobat X Pro but I still only get Reader when it is opened.
Please help...this is for hospital use.

Hi Lori,
I think the registry keys are not getting updated after installation of Acrobat.
Try uninstalling Adobe Reader and Acrobat both and then install only Acrobat and check if issue still exists.

Cannot Install Acrobat 9 Pro after Installing IE8

The story... Running Vista Business. I've been running Acrobat 9 Pro for a while now. I have since upgraded my browser from IE6 (default install) to IE7 to IE8. Today I decided to uninstall/reinstall Acrobat 9 Pro to troubleshoot an issue. All of a sudden, the Acrobat 9 Pro installer quits during the preinstall checks and says, "Acrobat requires Internet Explorer version 6".
At this point, downgrading IE is out of the question (for a multitude of reasons), so I re-ran the Acrobat 9 installer, this time doing a custom install. In the advanced settings, I unchecked the PDFMaker for Internet Explorer option. After that, the installer ran without any errors. Wanted to post this in case some else out there runs into this issue.
Apparently when Adobe built Acrobat 9, they assumed that IE versions would never go above 6.
Bug or bust? Your call.

Hi, yes, understood that they are different things. However, if I'm to
rely on the link provided on the first reply then does it follow that 9
Pro is also not supported on Mountain Lion? I have a MACbook here on OSX
Mountain Lion, and as I've also mentioned on my first post, I was able to
install 9 Pro and update it as well.
It really is just odd that Lion is singled out here. I also checked this
and there is no mention of problems with updating 9 Pro:

Sorry, but just trying to really find a workaround for this issue right
now. We though of using X Pro instead but, again, if I rely on the system
requirements on this link -
http://www.adobe.com/sea/products/acrobatpro/tech-specs.html - the OSX
version our user has is still not supported.
Mac OS
Intel processor
Mac OS X v10.5.8 or v10.6.4
512MB of RAM (1GB recommended)
1.2GB of available hard-disk space
1024x768 screen resolution
DVD-ROM drive
Safari 4 for Mac OS X v10.5.8; Safari 4 or 5.0.x for Mac OS X v10.6.4
Thanks.

Cant run adobe acrobat x1 pro after installing it - serial number upgrade problem

i have installed adobe acrobat xi pro on my new microsoft surface computer running windows 8.1. i just got this new computer ... the product was originally installed on my old computer. (i purchased the product a little over a year ago) the download and installation appeared to have gone well ... but now when i attempt to actually run the program, i get the message "serial number you provided is valid, but a qualifying product could not be found on this computer" a window asks me to select a product from a drop down list - but adobe acrobat x1 pro does not appear on that list

The message you are getting indicates you purchased the software as an upgrade version and it is asking you to identify the older version that you upgraded from to prove that you qualify for using the upgrade version. YOu need to select the older version and provide its serial number as well.

I cannot get my Acrobat Pro to open. I already uninstalled it and re installed it. But still does not open. The program pops to ask for permission to open the program, but it never actually opens. I trouble shoot it and it says incompatible application.

It sounds like an issue of trying to run XI on VISTA. That combination does not work. Info on both the Acrobat full version (including sub-version) and OS would help. It might also be an issue of running 11.0.0 on a system that needs the updates to work.

I cannot start installing Acrobat X Pro after I click the Install button.

Which operating system are you using? Do you receive any error messages? Is this the trial of Adobe Acrobat X Professional or have you purchased the software?

Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan

Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan through Adobe, although Scanner says its combatible with Windows 8. Cannot reinstall drivers because Brother claims they're built-in. Help!

1. Re: Reinstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after upgrading to windows 8.1 and now cannot scan
Anubha Goel
I am using a Brother MFC 8460N and on Brother's site it says its compatible with win 8.1 and that the driver is already installed. When I try to scan I am told there is no preset (there was with win 7 though) and I have to "custom scan." When I try that, I hear a sound as if the printer is trying to scan, but the feeder can't pull the paper through. I then get a blank .pdf as my scan. Thanks for your advice. I will try that.

Hi pholewinski!
I have a couple of articles for you here that I believe will help you with this issue. The first is an article on advanced troubleshooting, and it can be found here:
iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3297
If following that article's steps doesn't take care of the issue, you can try the things listed in this article, which is about permissions issues in iTunes:
iTunes: Missing folder or incorrect permissions may prevent authorization

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

Cannot get windows update to run after hard drive install and recovery

I cannot get windows update to run after a new shdd 1 tb was installed.
I have a pavilion dv7 4083cl. My recovery set did not work so I used the OEM set.
Any help would be appreciated

Hello kjdsynz,
Have you taken a look at the HD & SSD manual? Did the recovery fail? If you take a look at this page for help with that.
Please let me know if this has helped.
Good luck!

Can't load previously installed Acrobat 9 Pro after my CS6 trial expired.

Can't load previously installed Acrobat 9 Pro after my CS6 trial expired. Keeps asking to buy the trial version or license the software (in reference to the CS6 trial, even though I'm loading my own Acrobat 9 Pro from my CS4 Creative Suite I purchased and had previously installed--still installed to my knowledge...at least I never uninstalled it anyway, if that helps)
Thank you!

Yes. I have tried to repair it, but it still didn't work. I had to completely uninstall - reboot - then do a clean install. Works beautifully for a few weeks, then nothing.

How do I get my acrobat X pro reinstalled? It won't install & I mistakenly uninstalled it yesterday?

Again, How do I get my Acrobat X Pro reinstalled on my computer?

Hey Alyce,
Do not worry as you can download Acrobat X pro from the below mentioned link:
Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | XI, X
Remember, you must be signed up as administrator and anti-virus is disabled.
Let me know if you still face any problem.

Owner of CS6 Master. Unaccidentally installed Acrobat XI Professional. Was always trial - not upgrade. Uninstalled Acrobat XI Pro. Can I just download the Acrobat X Pro and install it using the CS6 Master License number ?

Hi, I believe I made a mistake when installed Acrobat XI Professional over the CS6 Master version Acrobat X Professional. The result ended up with running a trial version of Acrobat XI Professional. I wanted to upgrade but not using the subscription version, but rather buy the software and own it, like with my CS6 Master Software. Well, I now uninstalled the Acrobat XI Professional and wondering if I now can download the Acrobat X Pro software, install it and use the CS6 Master license number to get going ?
Kind Regards
Gunnar

Well. After downloading the separate full version of Acrobat X Professional, it could not be installed using the serial # for CS6 Master Collection. I started the installation for CS6 Master Collection and ONLY selected Acrobat X Professional. Voila! Now everything is working.

you can get an acrobat 9 pro trial version here, if you follow all 7 steps: http://prodesigntools.com/all-adobe-cs5-direct-download-links.html
i'm not sure if your license for the extended version will work with the non-extended version but, give it a try.

I cannot get Abobe Acrobat XI to recognize my Fujitsu S500 Scanner.

I cannot get Abobe Acrobat XI to recognize my Fujitsu S500 Scanner.
The scanner is installed and it's in the device manager but Adobe Acrobat does not show it as a choice under scanner selections.

Having to install new printer drivers tends to imply going to a new OS.
The Acrobat 7 product family is not compatible with any contemporary OS.
For that you'd need the current release of Acrobat.
Be well...

Sorry about the caps!! My coworker had 14 updates and was trying to do them all at once. So she unchecked some and started updating a few @ a time and it worked, but my other coworker only has two updates and it looks like its installing. Then after she restarts her computer the updates still show. We.re all working on MAC OS X 10.6.8. Do you have any suggestions?

Cannot uninstall Adobe Acrobat XI Pro: Help Please

Cannot uninstall Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. Gone to programs and tried to uninstall then message says it is going to do it. Then message prompts come up asking if it can update my software. If I say no action it stops uninstalling. Then if I say yes it goes no further either.
Regret every taken up the trial offer for this programme as I tried using it and message repeatedly appears saying "Acrobat failed to send a DDE command".
Please can someone offer some advice. Thank you.

Try launching acrobat in safe mode, to do so follow the steps:
a.       Press and hold down shift and double click the acrobat icon and then open a pdf file.
b.      If it opens without crashing after about 15 seconds, then you have a faulty plug in, locate and remove it from your plug-ins folder.
c.       To remove plug-ins, you may contact Acrobat Support
